ESTIMATION OF LAMIVUDINE BY DIFFERENT ANALYTICAL METHODS - A REVIEW Authors: K. Latha Sri , G. GAYATHRI, P. PRACHET, M. SIVA PRASAD AND RAMA RAO
ABSTRACT
The current review paper focuses on using several analytical approaches to estimate
Lamivudine and their combination of drugs. Lamivudine is used to treat HIV and Hepatitis B
infection. It acts as a competitive inhibitor of the HBV DNA polymerase and blocks viral
replication by inhibiting the viral polymerase by chain termination. Lamivudine and its
combinations are estimated by using various analytical techniques like UV-Visible
spectrophotometer, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Liquid
chromatography –Tandem mass spectrophotometry (LC-TMS), High Performance Thin
Layer Chromatography (HPTLC). This review makes clear about the usage of precise
solvents for the estimation of lamivudine and its combinations.
